THURSDAY 9/13: They are loving life! I misted them a few times with flower's kiss and rearranged everybody a little. Neither of the 3 that I FIMed yesterday showed any signs of shock at all...Yay! WW#3's auxins immediately stepped it up a notch and her lower branches are growing very quickly. FRIDAY: I split 2 gallons of ph'd water with a little bud candy and boomerang between the 6 WW's, 1 CC, and 10 Kushpialidocious clones and misted everybody in the small tent a few times today. I rearranged everybody today after adding another 40w of cool white LED and another 20w of full spectrum LED. I mounted all 4 of my 4' side lights with velcro (much easier to deal with) and also mounted led strip light channels with velcro. WW#3 and WW#4 started flowering today! SATURDAY: WW#6 (the tiniest WW) started flowering today. Kinda weird..she's still too short to FIM and already flowering..auto's just frickin' amaze me. I misted everybody a few times today and moved both Exhale bags to opposite corners. I've decided to grow the 6 x WW's and 1 x CC to completion in this 4 x 4 tent. There's just no way I can fit all the Kushpialidocious clones in there, even if they are in 3g pots.. and even if I move their big mamma outdoors to finish, which I plan to do. So....I'm not satisfied that I have enough light in the small tent to really swell up my WW buds to the proportions I had in my big tent. While the side-lighting I've implemented is pretty kickass, I just don't think my primary light has the juice to get'er done. I also don't think I could manage the temperatures well enough in this small tent to be able to just buy a second of the same fixture... So...I have about two weeks to come up with a solution...at most....and I hate to toss out this 1500w fixture, as it give pretty kickass performance for the money. I also don't want to spend an arm and a leg on it, but that seems unavoidable...I'm not about to fail my girls and provide some wimpy-assed lighting.😇 SUNDAY: Foliar feeding and rearranging today... MONDAY: I FIM'd the other 2 WW's, so all 6 got a haircut this crop. First two to undergo the procedure are definitely doubling-up. I added a third bag of Exhale to their tent today, so that's 2 x 365's and 1 x XL in a 4 x 4 tent. CO2 PPM's are steady at 1335+ TUESDAY: They each got about 28oz of ph'd water with calimagic, bud candy, terpinator and boomerang today. I added more light today, so we're up to about 415w total light for the majority of the day, and kicking on the 1500w (360w actual) for an hour a day. 2 x 50w blue/white par38 spots (26w actual each) 2 x 50w blue/white panels (22w actual each) 1 x 150w blue/white panel (74w actual) 1 x 40w(actual) Sansi daylight white par38 2 x 38w (actual) cool white 4' tubes 2 x 9w (actual) full spectrum pink tubes 1 x 18w (actual) warm white 4' tube 1 x 16' SMD 5050 cool white strip light (96w actual) It seems to be working pretty damn well. WEDNESDAY: No shock at all from FIMing..all the WW girls look great and lower branches growing like crazy. The first 3 to get FIM'd last week are splitting off into multiple colas...nice. Today I replaced the 2 x 50w blue/white par38 spots with 5 x 150w (12w actual) 475nm blue Miracle LEDs..less heat, better coverage. Total draw wattage now up to 425w.

The aromas are definitely more pungent, but honestly, if your humidity isn't right when you dry it, there's nothing much that will help the final "texture" of your buds. You gotta try and keep the temps at 75f and some wind moving, but at the same time, keep the humidity at at least 50% to keep them from drying too quickly...that's the real trick I think. I'm finding that if I hang them to dry in a much smaller enclosure, I can control the humidity better.

How was it sir? I’ve got the same seeds and I’m 7 weeks in. I hope it was 🔥🔥🔥🤷‍♂️🏽🧐 I can’t wait 😊

@Silverback_Guerilla, thx you sir for the information very helpful. Yeah I’m super worried about cutting them to soon or late 😆. The trichomes are still clear and I’ve got maybe 20-30 red hairs so far. Tomorrow I’ll update my grow if you’d look them over that would be awesome sir. Thx

@Okie420_1986, I love the stuff...grew that exact strain twice last year, and just tried Seedsman's White Widow Autos...and have 5 more WWA beans from Spliff Seeds that I'll be trying this Fall... From the looks of it, yours might go a few more weeks. Don't kill her too early and she'll swell up and really glisten with trichromes. Wait until you see at least 10% amber trichromes in any given patch and she'll rock your world!👈 Also..it may just be the photos, but your foliage is looking very dark green..at this stage of her life, you want to start seeing senescence (overall paling of leaves). You should start backing off of the nutes containing Nitrogen and pump up the phosphorus and potassium.. and heavy up on any sweeteners you might possess(e.g. molasses, etc..) In my "1st grow in 25 years" diary, you can see the best 2 CKS WWA's that I've finished thus far-

@Silverback_Guerilla, thanks appreciate the hollaback I just checked out a video on YouTube cuz this guy said some Growers consider this the secret the terpinator I mean I grow nice plants very very frosty high THC content but still I don't get that incredible smell and the oils that allow it to not dry out so much I grow well dry well and cure well this is got to be the missing link so I just bought some I'll be able to tell from this green crack I've got growing I'm also going to add it to my sugar black rose thanks for the tip

@ChefGreenThumbGardenofWeedin, Definitely. I didn't use any on my first batch of White Widows, and they had a great aroma, but it wasn't nearly as pungent as this crop! I used Terpinator during the entire grow cycle...increasing the dose as the plants progressed.

yea, temps are a bit high, and i'm not an expert but those buds look a bit light-burned or ph stressed... But i think i doesn't matter in the end because everything is coming along nicely!

@NewbieMJ00, Ya, actually I double-whammied them last week and the week before..first I had PH pen issues and that got things waaay out of whack...then I had temperature issues the next week (over 100f for a whole day!)...crispy critters. The situation has improved and I should still be able to pull a decent harvest. Thanks!
